Effective Area-Elasticity and Tension of Micro-manipulated Membranes
J. -B. Fournier, A. Ajdari, L. Peliti
We evaluate the effective Hamiltonian governing, at the optically resolved scale, the elastic properties of micro-manipulated membranes. We identify floppy, entropic-tense and stre…

Casimir Torques between Anisotropic Boundaries in Nematic Liquid Crystals
R. Golestanian, A. Ajdari, J. -B. Fournier
Fluctuation-induced interactions between anisotropic objects immersed in a nematic liquid crystal are shown to depend on the relative orientation of these objects. The resulting lo…
